Dale, I took a test that I think was the, SAT in 1958 for Engineering school entry. As I recall I got 1478 total and 793 on the math, so you beat me there, but as an Irish I had the gift of the gab, so I did well on the verbal part as well. The marks came back on a small green slip of card stock with percentiles that I was in, etc, about 1 inch high. I still have it somewhere as it was quite helpful for college.. Is this the same test over all these years?

Bill

Dale: I got a 1342 myself however, it was a bit unbalanced with a 798 in math.

SATs tend to be very odd in my book…

I'm a physicist and I don't have English as my primary language (although these days, virtually everything I read and write is in English), but still managed (back then) to score higher on my verbal. Shocking.

For the record, neither my verbal score nor my math score was 798 ;-). In terms of totals, however, we are fairly close, if I recall correctly…

SAT scores are all divisible by 10 (i.e., 1330,1340, 1350; there are no 1331, 1332, 1333).
